Before and After School Supervision

Student safety at Pakenham Lakeside Primary School is our highest priority and the safe and appropriate supervision of students is an important element of our duty of care to students. Part of this duty is ensuring parents and students are aware of our student supervision arrangements before and after school.

Before school: School grounds are supervised from 8:45am. School staff will supervise the basketball courts and playground equipment.

After school: School grounds are supervised from 3:15pm to 3:30pm. School staff will supervise the basketball courts and playground equipment.

Students on school grounds outside these times will not be supervised (unless they are attending a before or after school care program or supervised extracurricular activity).

Parents/carers are requested to ensure that students do not attend school outside of these supervised times unless they are attending before or after school care, or a pre-arranged supervised activity (i.e. sports practice).

Families are encouraged to contact OSHClub on 1300 395 735 or OSHClub for more information about the before and after school care facilities available to our school community or if you would like any further information about our student supervision arrangements.
